Because I favor rolling release models to point-release, even when the software is comparably up to date.
Fedora's a fine distro though, and probably the one I'd be using if not for that one reason.

Why would you want to? It just means that they observe the new packages in a real environment before using them in LTS distros.
pros
>delta rpm updates, only download the changes to the program, not the whole thing over again
>stuff is usually available in rpm format as well as deb
cons
>have to add third party repos for lots of stuff (nvidia driver, mp3 playback, etc)
